It's Not Just About You

​Whether you are a writer, an actor, a producer or a director,most talents carry a wish-list of success, fame, and fortune.Yet everyone — rich or poor — has their own secret struggles.For some of us it’s losing a few nights of sleep to meeta submission deadline; or trying to reason with an arrogant,ego-centric client. But for many it is much more serious.

While I work and advise creative talent, I don’t preach to strangers.That said, regardless of how much celebrity you think you have achieved(either real or imaginary), in the scheme of things, you are justone human being amongst 7.7 billion people worldwide.

The next time you are feeling sorry for yourself — perhaps angryand upset that you gained a pound or two… or noticed another batchof wrinkles crisscrossing your face; or received your 22nd literaryrejection slip — the “crisis” you are facing may be so incredibly minimalcompared to what someone else is going through.
